Microwave Cooking Principles:

Arrange food carefully, placing thicker pieces at the edge.
Always use appropriate dishes on the glass tray; do not cook directly on the tray.
Set short cooking times initially and add more if needed to avoid overcooking or ignition.
Cover food to prevent splattering and ensure even heating.
Turn over large food items like chicken or roasts during cooking.
Rearrange similar food items (e.g., meatballs) from back to front and center to edge for even cooking.

Kitchenware Guide:

Suitable: Heat-resistant glass, heat-resistant ceramics, microwave-safe plastic dishes, kitchen paper.
Unsuitable: Metal pans/dishes, dishes with metal handles/trimming, plastic bag clips, melamine surfaces, common thermometers.
Avoid heating liquids or food in closed dishes as they may explode.
Be cautious with microwave-heated drinks due to delayed boiling.
Do not deep-fry in the microwave.
Do not heat eggs in shells or whole hard-boiled eggs.
Pierce thick-skinned foods (potatoes, squash, apples, chestnuts) before cooking.
Stir/shake contents of baby bottles/food jars and check temperature before serving.
Use protective gloves as kitchenware can become hot.

Maintenance Features:

Always unplug the oven before cleaning.
Wash the glass tray with detergent and rinse before first use.
Keep the oven interior clean; wipe with a wet cloth or a weak solution of neutral cleaning agent for heavy dirt. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Clean the exterior with a damp cloth, ensuring water does not enter ventilation openings.
Regularly clean the oven door, window, seals, and adjacent parts from dirt and food remnants using a weak solution of neutral kitchen cleaning agent. Avoid abrasive cleaners, gas, or thinners.
Prevent the control panel from getting wet; clean with a soft damp cloth. Keep the door open when cleaning the control panel to prevent accidental activation.
Clean the glass tray in warm soapy water or a dishwasher.
Regularly clean the rotating circle and the bottom of the interior to prevent increased noise.
To remove odors, place a glass of water with lemon rind in the oven and microwave for 5 minutes, then wipe the interior dry.
Contact the dealer if interior lighting needs replacement.
Regular cleaning and food remnant removal are crucial to prevent surface damage and potential hazards.

Inspect for damage (bent door, damaged seals, loose hinges, dents). Do not operate if damaged; contact a service agent.
Place on a flat, stable surface capable of holding its weight and the heaviest food.
Avoid placing near heat, moisture, high humidity, or combustible materials.
Ensure sufficient airflow: 20 cm above, 10 cm at back, 5 cm on sides. Do not cover or block vents. Do not remove the oven's feet.
Do not operate without the glass tray, roller ring, and power device installed.
Ensure the supply cord is not damaged, trapped, or in contact with hot/sharp surfaces.
Ensure the power socket is easily accessible for quick disconnection.
